  • I think these look pretty tidy...in budget too. I'd have one.

  • FZ's had de-tuned R6 engines out of the box, and with the right pipe, they can be pretty bleeding shouty.

    @PhilDAS You can wrap anything around a lamp post mate. CC's don't mean a thing if the person behind the bars is a pillock. Higher CC's do tend to make for smoother bikes as well.

    VFR800 I had was outright brilliant and I'd get another one in a heart beat, but the servicing requirements scared me a bit.
    What's your budget anyway if you don't mind me asking?

  • Agree, fz had detuned engine with different cams so re programing doesn't do much.

    VFR cam chains and valve clearances needing a special vtec tool to do the vtec clearances.

  • Sub 2.5k if possible. Getting 1.7 back from my write off plus whatever I can somehow get for the scrap bike so I’ll have to put a bit towards it.
    I’d stretch for something really awesome but I do think I’m setting on the FZ6. Like the look of them a lot and with a couple of subtle mods I think I’d be quite happy with it as a replacement for the GSR.
    Basically a naked R6 instead of a naked GSXR
